So now that we have two complete teapots, the next logical thing to do is to go ahead
and make some teacups to go along with them. So I'm going to show you a couple of different
versions of doing a teacup, and also how to make a matching set, so that you can have
your teapot and four matching teacups to go with it. So, teacups don't need to be very
large, so I'm going to only use about three quarters of a pound of clay for each one of
them, but I'm going to prepare several pieces at once so that I have enough to make a set.
It's a little much, that's a pound, that's right about right, so I'm going to ball that
up. I'm going to make sure and go ahead and cut four or five of these, it's good to have
an extra if you're planning on a set of four, go ahead and cut five just in case you mess
one up. And then take these balls over to the wheel and I'll show you how to do the
teacups.
